In 2009 the US Federal Government began evaluating PON for use in data networking applications. Since then, passive optical networks have started to gain acceptance across federal agencies and facilities as a viable option to traditional distributed Ethernet.
The United States Department of Defense (DoD) updated its Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) documents to include GPON / Passive Optical LAN deployment guidelines for new construction and renovation requirements.

A lean and green GPON solution at Fort Campbell is reducing power and energy usage. The passive architecture requires no power within the fiber or optical devices that distribute signals to end users.
Dubai Airport installed a GPON solution, and reduced their IT operation cost by 25%, and provided more design options and scalability when compared to a traditional Category 6A solution.
Wellington International Airport installed a GPON solution for their new airport / hotel development and found, that the GPON solution was both cheaper to install and cheaper to run than a traditional LAN.
The major benefit of the GPON installation is lower IT capital costs. Anglicare was able to significantly reduce the amount of cabling required for the expansion and saved money by constructing one communications room instead of two.
The GPON installation greatly reduced IT infrastructure costs for the $100m expansion of Montefiore Aged Care’s Randwick facility.
The GPON infrastructure allows the Harbison Aged Care team to capture critical information, including the whereabouts of every single person at any given time.
